How to Love Your Job (10 tips on how to make it easy)!

I really need to learn how to love my job. What advice do you have for me today?

Dear reader,

I used to be in your shoes. I remember feeling very exhausted, under-appreciated and having zero balance on my personal time and my work schedule. I felt I had no say at work and nothing changed. I felt back-stabbed by co-workers who constantly gossiped and I wondered for the thousandth time…why oh why did I become…a teacher. Then one day something changed.

I decided to love my job. Here’s how:

I started posting morning mantras << on my personal page for everyone, including the co-workers who followed me.

I took a more active role in meetings and volunteered to head up committees. As a chair, they had to listen to my ideas.

I did not do 5 things at once. << This one took some time as I thought I worked better that way, but I really didn’t.

I made sure I was clear on what was in my job description and what time constraints looked like and where my job ended. Seriously. I didn’t want to be taken advantage of over and over.

I did not stay late anymore…where I once worked so hard I made myself ill.

I gave myself breaks. There was actually time to go to the bathroom in my damn and I made sure everyone was aware that breaks were important.

I created a “let’s not talk shop” lunch policy with my close friends. Let’s talk life.

I had everything picked out the night before down to my shoes and didn’t rush in the morning.

I decided to have a great day and give it my all, and when that appeared to not be good enough after doing all of this, I would leave if need be or change schools.

That was the year was one of my best years ever. I really put everything I had into loving my job dear reader. Was the job the thing I had romanticized in my head? No, it was not. Was the job harder than I thought? Yes. Yes it was. I just knew that I had made a commitment and I was going to do my best to change my way of thinking and see what followed.
